“The market adoption of FineSim is growing rapidly, over 100 companies are now using it in their design flows,” said Anirudh Devgan, general manager of Magma’s Custom Design Business Unit. “Many FineSim users are reporting impressive productivity improvements, underscoring the software’s ability to simulate tough analog designs fast.”

FineSim SPICE: Fast and Accurate Simulation

FineSim SPICE is a SPICE-level simulation analysis tool that incorporates transistor-level simulation analysis capabilities for mixed-signal and analog designs. FineSim SPICE is a full SPICE simulation engine with distributed processing that enables customers to simulate large-scale mixed-signal system chips at the transistor level. By providing increased speed and capacity while maintaining full SPICE accuracy, FineSim SPICE enables designers to simulate advanced circuits – such as PLLs, ADCs (analog-to-digital converters), DACs (digital-to-analog converters) and gigahertz SERDES (SERializer/DESerializer) – that they previously would not even attempt using slower traditional SPICE simulators.
